Customer Reviews

Jacqueline Bamford (10th September 2019)"Friendly service, made the sofa specifically as we asked, was made to measure. The men who delivered the sofa had an absolute nightmare trying to get it in our house, they remained calm, patient and finally after 3 hours our sofa was in and ready to use. Excellent quality and choice, would definitely recommend a visit to the showroom. They make items to your specifications."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Some delivery is harder to do than others but we always get them in your room. Some delivery would be impossible be we can do them because we can build your sofa in two halves for easy delivery. It is possible with The Designer Sofa to get your corner unit or sofa into a room other companies would not attempt to do. We build your sofa your way to make the most of your room."

Laura (6th June 2019)"Can't thank Ian enough, his advice has potentially saved me a fortune! So helpful, and I'm very appreciative! :) x"

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Thank you, we always give the best advice we can to each of our customers. I like to treat people as I would like to be treated."

JUSTINE LEAPER (10th October 2018)"Our sofa, chair and footstools where purchased 7years ago and apart from a few dog hairs I haven't brushed off today they still look as good today and are just as comfortable as when we had them. Furniture that's made to to your own requirements whether its extra support needed for a bad back or preference for a slightly taller chair back Is not a problem. The service, knowledge, quality and craftsmanship from all at The Design Sofa can not be beaten."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"It`s nice to get feedback from a customer who has had our furniture for a few years and have had a chance to see how good it is.
We can make furniture to fit you and your room, and if you have a bad back or some other medical condition we can make a sofa to help you.
Our furniture is not mass produced very quickly like the sofa on the high street, each one is handmade especially for you. When your frame is made your name is put on it at the beginning and our craftsman will then turn it into your sofa or chair.
Thank You from all the Team"

A Parker (29th June 2019)"I never thought I'd be saying this but......today I was moved to tears by the sight of my new sofa!
It was 12 wks ago that my husband and I walked into The Designer Sofa shop and met Taz and Ian.
We'd been looking for a new sofa for about a year. I had an image in my head of what I wanted and despite listening to various sales patter and visiting endless furniture and department stores, I wasn't happy with the choices available.
What a breath of fresh air it was to meet Taz and his team.
They are all very proud and passionate about what they do and rightly so.
The service they deliver is truly exceptional. The furniture is all handmade using the highest quality British hardwood and springs.
The team's ethics and values take you back to a time when buying British meant you were guaranteed the highest quality product that would be reliable and sold at an honest price.
Taz explained that they could make any sofa we wanted, any style, size, any fabric.....the choice is endless. There is no "hard sell" or sales banter. They don't need to. The quality speaks for itself.
He then proceeded to show us how they make the furniture!
He proudly introduced us to his craftsmen in the workshop next door.....no room for hierarchy there. Immediately the team's expertise, skill and honesty was apparent. Their transparency was so refreshing.
True British craftsmanship is rare these days but that is what you get with The Designer Sofa team.
They have kept us informed throughout the whole process, ensuring we were happy with the way the fabric would fit the frame.
I've always had a second hand sofa before......so silly as it sounds........I was quite moved today when I saw my sofa completed! The "image in my head" had become a reality and is much better than I ever dreamed.
It is perfect in every way, the quality and detail are astounding and it is comfortable beyond belief.
A huge thank you to Taz and his team and best wishes for the future."

Pat & David Burton (12th January 2018)"Dear Taz and the workshop team,
We write to say thanks again to you and the team for the wonderful job you did for us on our two sofas and armchair and for your advice on choice and mixing fabrics which really was so helpful.
As you know when we paid our pre delivery visit to you we were over the moon with the result, the transformation was amazing and everything you promised from quality to craftsmanship was delivered. We have a brand new suite and it has to be said we like it even more than the original and at a very reasonable cost considering what it would have been to replace.
We would highly recommend the company to anyone who wants the reassurance of a truly professional job, the whole experience was a pleasure.
Best Regards
Pat & David Burton

Ann & Fred (7th September 2017)"Many thanks for the exceptional customer service we have had since having our suite re-upholstered with your company.
We have been very pleased with the finished result and high standard of workmanship involved.
All of your team have done a great job, even returning our suite, the boys managed to manoeuvre the suite back into position with no mishaps.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend your company to other people."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"We supply quality and service you don't get in the big chain stores anymore, you are just a number to them. We are a family firm based in Long Eaton for many years now, we get to know many of our customs as they have been returning to us for over 20 years.
We will help you if you want a bespoke sofa or your treasured old sofas reupholstered.
That is why like you our customers would not hesitate to recommend us to friends and family.
Thank You
From all at The Designer Sofa"

Michele Giles (16th May 2019)"To buy new or reupholster our old suite that was the dilemma! Our sofas had been custom made 16 years ago and were looking worn and tired but nothing in the big furniture stores caught our eye. After reading the reviews and speaking to Ian I knew we'd made the right decision to go with the Designer Sofa option to reupholster for us. We are thrilled with the results! We now have an updated suite with lovely 'plumpy' cushions and believe me, after sitting on our conservatory wicker furniture for 4 weeks, we are so glad to have our comfy sofas back! All the team were brilliant from help with choosing fabrics to collection and delivery - would highly recommend."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Thank you, Michele and Steve. We always do our best from meeting a client to delivering you sofas to your home. If you want a new sofa or re-upholstery we use the same part and nothing is the second best. We are so proud of the work we produce that when it is finished we invite you back to look at the finished sofas or chairs, we don't expect you to pay until you are 100% happy with the finished work. That is the reason we get so many good reviews, we really do care. Ian & the Team"

Anne Bolton (28th March 2019)"The people at designer sofa are exceptional with their care and expertise but it is the quality their workmanship that is absolute first class. From the carpenter who makes the beech thro to the lady who cuts the material the upholsterers and machinist are all the top in their trade so you are going to have the most comfortable sofas that last. Mine was made exactlty as i asked, am i happy with them, you bet i am."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"When we make you a sofa in our Long Eaton Factory it is a team effort, from ordering to delivery, everyone is an expert in their part in manufacturing perfect furniture for your home.
Thank you for recognizing the work and effort that has gone into producing your furniture. Rest assured when you have a sofa from The Designer Sofa it will be just what you have always wanted, and with a coil spring unit and a beech hardwood frame, it will stay comfortable for years to come.
Best Wishes
All the Team"

Emma & Graeme Mascall (23rd October 2018)"We cannot thank you enough for our gorgeous new sofas. After 15 years we decided to change to our dream sofa, a chesterfield. With your expert advice we were able to work out what we wanted from fabric and colour to size. Even better you carried out a measuring service which was for us invaluable. It took all the stress out of the process for us. It was even not too much trouble to hold the sofas for us for a couple of weeks because of a delay with a new floor. Delivery was a breeze and at no time did we have to worry about any little detail because of the quality of both the service and workmanship. We have and continue to recommend you and will certainly be back again for other rooms. A special mention to Ian who went above and beyond and was very patient answering all our questions."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Thank you for giving your opinion on The Designer Sofa. I must admit I did enjoy coming over to Royal Leamington Spa to do the home service you required. After we had done all the measuring and looked at fabric samples, I went to have a look around Leamington and fell in love with it and have been back with the family four times since, if it were not for you I would not have found out how beautiful it was around your hometown.
We always put customers first, and of cause quality, many companies don't bother about quality and the customer when things go wrong. As you know, we have balances and check throughout the design process and when your work is finished, we invite you to the factory to examine your work before you pay the balance. Nothing ever leaves the factory unless"
